As mentioned in one of our previous posts, Cyprus is one of the best countries to invest in right now. One smart way of investing in Cyprus is by opening a company or moving an existing company’s offices to Cyprus.  Below are just some of the benefits of registering a Company in Cyprus:

• European Union (EU) jurisdiction

• Legal system based on the UK Common Law principles and aligned with the EU Laws and regulations

• Attractive Tax incentives. Corporation tax on net profit worldwide is only 12,5%

• Dividends on interest paid by a Cyprus resident company to non-resident shareholders, corporate or individuals, are not subject to any withholding tax

• There is no tax on the sale of shares (unless the company which shares are being sold has immovable property in Cyprus)

• EU VAT registration simplifies EU trading

• Cyprus has a wide network of double tax treaties providing zero or low withholding tax rates on interest, dividends and royalties.

With a wide network of key contacts in the country’s banking and governmental institutions, and a constant focus on all the developments of all necessary procedures and processes, Emerald Group has a strong reputation in providing world-class Corporate Structuring solutions helping our clients to set-up and manage their Cyprus businesses in the fastest and best way.  We take care of the complicated and time-consuming procedures allowing you to focus on what’s important – your business’ smooth operation, growth and development.
